Text size question

[Paullllyyyy]

Hi ... I have all the way up to service pack 1 install
and i am curious as to why when i set my text size in IE
6 to >>> largest <<< it always goes back to medium
size ??? It doesn't happen right ol'way either , it
happen after a few boot ups of IE 6... This is a fresh (
clean ) install of windows too

Some webpages specify to your brower what size font to use (not concerning
headers). One way to close the font size tag is to tell the browser to
return text size to normal. I've never known IE6 to do it, but this command
can be interpreted by the browser as a default instruction, hence the medium
font size... Not sure if this helps, but it's all I got! LOL Play around
with the web pages you frequent, and see if not going to a certain site
makes a difference.

If IE-View-Text Size does not stick....

---solution 1
If you are using Eudora 4.2 or greater then use Tools-Options-Viewing
Mail and uncheck "Use Microsoft's viewer"
It is Eudora that is setting the IE text size and unchecking that
option will stop it.

The key that Eudora 4.x will change is this:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\International\Scripts\3]
"IEFontSize"=hex:02,00,00,00

---solution 2
In Outlook 2000 go to Tools/Options/Mail Format/Fonts/International
Fonts, and for each font
change the "Font Size" entry to your desired size.
